PSP Homebrew - Hokuto No Ken
If you liked the Hokuto no Ken / Doom hybrid we posted about earlier this year, you might want to take a gander at this new homebrew game too. Homebrew developer SeanPaul223 has brought Kenshiro and his insanely destructive Hokuto Shinken-powered fists to both Phat and Slim PSPs for another round of fighting via the homebrew title, Hokuto no Ken.
The objective of the game is to pummel any and all enemies that dare stand before you. Main man Kenshiro, who was created using sprites from Davide Montani, can be moved using the PSP's directional buttons. You can punch people's heads off using the X button.
Please note that according to the developer, the game freezes on some PSPs, but this should be fixed in the next version. SeanPaul223 didn't mention any specific firmwares for Hokuto no Ken, but the game ran fine on 3.80M33-4. Check the readme file included in the download below for more info.
